The president of the Saskatchewan Teachers' Federation (STF) says it is ready to get back to the bargaining table after its members rejected the provincial government's latest contract offer.

The STF said Thursday evening that 92.2 per cent of its members voted over the previous two days, with 90 per cent of them rejecting the province's offer. The threeyear collective agreement offer featured a three per cent salary increase in the first and second years, with the first increase retroactive to September 2023, and then a two per cent increase in the third year.

STF president Samantha Becotte said she wasn't surprised by the resounding rejection.
